Rue de l’Abreuvoir et la rue des Saules
1926
Swedish architect Ferdinand Boberg captured the quiet, rustic charm of Montmartre in this 1926 sketch of the Rue de l'Abreuvoir and Rue des Saules. Known for his grand Art Nouveau buildings back home, here he uses loose, expressive strokes to render the textured stone walls and overgrown trees of this historic Parisian corner. The scene feels like a peaceful, timeless snapshot of the city, far removed from the bustling boulevards, showcasing Boberg's keen eye for atmospheric urban landscapes during his travels through France.
